Honesuckle and Roses

[abu nuwas]

I hesitate to ask, but all my googling didn't get me anywhere on this one. 'Godehead' which I took for a typo at first yielded links about Hinduism and Jews for Jesus. Oliverine and Odovacar list as archaic names but didn't provided any further background. The capitalized 'Hare', 'Hound', 'Sky', 'Garden', etc. make me think about Aesop . . . I give :p can you give me a hint?

It is a bit difficult, but I was just thinking of a kind of mediaeval fantasy if you will, where this couple are looking back with regret on a kind of golden time, and place, a sort of Garden of Eden from which they have managed to get chucked out or where it has all collapsed -- quite a common occurrence, then, and now. A more spiritual version of Scarlet O'Hara a few years down the road. I can't really spell it all out, Mark, but the capitals stuff, is a reflection in part of a certain type of Middle Eastern mysticism as translated (no caps in Arabic) like this, from the very beginning of Fitzgerald's 'Rubaiyat of Omar Khayam'

'Awake! For Morning in the Bowl of Night
Has flung the Stone that puts the Stars to flight'

Odovacar was the name of the leader of a Germanic Horde, who ruled Italy,after the fall of Rome, until overthrown by the Ostrogoth, Theoderic, who split him in two with one single blow of his sword, commenting 'The poor fellow can have had no bones!'
